Restaurant Seeterrasse Familie Gutekunst, Höhlenweg 8, 74722 Buchen

Nice spot to eat after visiting the cave. Food was fine. Portions are quite big.

At the beginning there was a confusion with our reservation - it was incorrectly entered for February because the day of the week was the same 😕. We were listed there as “No Show”. Luckily a solution could be found, even though the restaurant was full. However, the situation was unnecessarily stressful and could have been avoided if the phone number provided when making the reservation had been noted. A tip for the restaurant to avoid such misunderstandings in the future. Once we had our table, the service went well: drinks arrived quickly and the appetizers were served quickly. The side salad was large and well seasoned, but not consistently put together - I was missing, for example. B. the beetroot that was there with others. The green seed soup was very tasty, while the beef broth was a bit too spicy for me personally. The main courses varied in quality. The Viennese-style schnitzel was unfortunately too thick and not baked hot enough. I wouldn't order the pork medallions with Madagascar pepper sauce again - the meat was good, but I didn't like the sauce at all. The duck , on the other hand, was delicious, generously portioned and served with plenty of side dishes. We were informed in advance that, contrary to the menu, it comes with bones and that there are bread dumplings instead of potato dumplings. The children's menu of chicken nuggets and fries was great - high quality and came to the table quickly, so the child didn't have to wait long. The restaurant has more of the charm of a sports center than of a “restaurant”, which doesn’t quite justify the high prices 🤔. Overall, a nice lunch, but I'm not convinced I'll necessarily go back. The service was friendly, but the rooms don't invite you to linger for a long time.

The service is friendly and attentive. The quality of the food was excellent and the prices reasonable. The view of the lake completes the experience. We definitely recommend it; we would come again.
